Dams around the world hold so much water they've shifted Earth's poles, new research shows
The construction of thousands of dams since 1835 has caused Earth's poles to wobble, new research suggests.Scientists found that large dams hold so much water they redistribute mass around the globe, shifting the position of Earth's crust relative to the mantle, the planet's middle layer.
Earth's mantle is gooey, and the crust forms a solid shell that can slide around on top of it. Weight on the crust that causes it to shift relative to the mantle also shifts the location of Earth's poles, the researchers said.

Dam construction since 1835 has caused Earth's poles to "wander" away from the planet's rotational axis because of the massive weight of water reservoirs.Sascha Pare (Live Science)

ATmosphere Report – #124
Bluesky adds more notification settings, on chatbots and Bluesky, and a proposal for Auth Scopes brings new questions on sources of authority.connectedplaces.online

it sort of makes sense in that LLM chatbots on a social network need access to the entire firehose to operate, and atproto is the only network really thats suitable for that. big tech doesnt have access to firehose at all (or insane prices for X), fedi will murder you if you build a firehose. so bsky is really the only option left (well nostr and farcaster, but then its a matter of audience size)

Israel has soft-launched its concentration camp in Rafah, and Donald Trump has hard-launched Alligator Alcatraz, while other countries look the other way.
Israel has made it clear that anyone who does not make their way to the new concentration camp, on what used to be Rafah city, will become a legitimate target for elimination.
At no point so far has Israel needed a legitimate justification for eliminating anyone.

The image features a vibrant red flower with a yellow center, prominently positioned in the foreground. The flower has multiple layers of petals, with a gradient of red hues, and a cluster of yellow stamens at its core. The flower is surrounded by green leaves, which are broad and have a glossy texture, indicating healthy growth. The background is a blurred mix of green foliage and soil, suggesting a garden setting. In the top left corner, there is a small inset image of a cloudy sky, adding a contrasting element to the scene. The text "BeReal." is visible at the bottom of the image, likely indicating the use of a specific photo editing app.
